Cole Porter’s High Society
Clear your diary, because you’re invited to the most swell party of the year, Cole Porter’s High Society.
Hot on the heels of Anything Goes and Kiss Me, Kate, this summer’s most eagerly anticipated production delivers another glorious dose of Golden Age musical theatre escapism across the UK and Ireland.
Helen George (Call the Midwife, The King and I) leads the 28-strong cast as glamorous socialite Tracy Lord in this lavish new production, where plans for the society wedding of the year descend into chaos, as old and new flames vie for attention, and a sharp-eyed tabloid reporter hunts for scandal at the waterfront estate.
Brought to life by a multi-award-winning creative team, including Rachel Kavanaugh and choreographer Anthony Van Laast and with a score overflowing with the best of Cole Porter’s songbook including Just One Of Those Things, Let’s Misbehave, I Love Paris, Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?, Well Did You Evah?, True Love and many more, Cole Porter’s High Society declares the season officially open!
